"No, Sakthi its over between us. I can't be in a relationship with you any more."
"What do you think? You're the one just called me now and you're shouting at me and saying the same words I have told you before, remember that I already told you we broke up. Now shut up and hang the call. Do you understand, I don't want any calls from you, just don't try to contact me from now on." He cut the call.
"That guy, such a guy, how dare he hang the call, yes that's it, I'm not going to call him again, it has ended here" Tears were running down my eyes and I felt heartbroken.
*Past*
We both were in a relationship for one year but after that there was too much fights and arguments between us and at a point, he broke up with me and left me. I couldn't take it and I was trying for past 10 months to keep in touch with him for a patch up but it didn't work. Finally I called him once, not for a patch up but to tell him, I am over him now and had completely stopped my efforts for him.
*Present*
It was a very hard time for me, it took me a year to get with it and move on. Its all thanks to my friends and a special thanks to my male best friend Pravi. He was there for me all the time despite of any situation. He carried me away from that sorrow and now I'm smiling happy all because of him. My name is Deepshi, I am doing my bachelor's in engineering in a college and my best buddy is from the same college I study. My ex-bf is from another college so, there is no worry about seeing him face to face.
Pravi and I are now friends for more than two years and he understands and know everything about me. We were close that some classmates thought we are in a relationship but we never had a thought about it and say to ourselves we will be friends forever. One of my friend told me that if boys think they had a chance they will try to make you their girlfriend and as Pravi and I are close there is no doubt she thought like that but hearing that at some point I was tiny bit of anxious about what she told me. I was thinking about it and my inner self told me to ask him about it but I ignored the thought as it will look like I don't trust him.
After evening, as usual I called Pravi and we were on call for hours and chatting about stuffs. All of a sudden the thought of asking him about what my friend said just flashed in my mind and I was curious about it and wanted to clear it. I grabbed my breath and said "Pravi, I will ask you one question and you have to answer and no lies, Ok?"
"Ok fine, ask me anything Deepshi" he replied. "Ok, so it is that if we had a chance will you try to propose me, make me your girlfriend? Answer me" I asked him. He was quite for some seconds my heart started to beat, *what is he going to say, I only looked him as my friend but what if he say he loves me, I don't want our friendship to be ruined* said to myself.
And he opened his mouth and said "No way you asked it, how did you think I will propose you to be my girlfriend. I have never thought of it. We have spoke about this long time but you still have trust issues" he was so worried and thought I doubted him. I felt guilty for asking him that. *What have I done, he is not going to be my friend anymore its all over* said to myself and started to apologise to him " Sorry Pravi really sorry, my friend confused me by saying those things and I wanted to confirm it and now see how stupid I am, I feel guilty to ask you a question like that, please dont leave me for being this stupid" my voice started to crack but he replied " its all ok my friend, I understand, everyone thought about us like this and every girl would have a thought like this on their guy best friend, its a basic thing for a girl to be cautious and see I will not leave you for this don't worry"
I grabbed my breath, *Thank god he understood me*, Pravi is a guy who was tall around 5'7", lean, ideal weight and athletic build. He has a wheatish complexion, curly hair, wore eyeglasses and looks nice. My girl best friend has a crush on him but I have never felt anything about him like that but I like him very much.
After that conversation I felt that our bond got one step stronger. We chatted as all was normal now and went to sleep. After few months, like usual as always our college life was going smooth and finished our semester exams and now we are in holidays. I got a call from my another friend who is a mutual friend of my ex-bf "Hello tell me what is it now?" I asked. "Hey Deepshi, Sakthi moved on and have no second thoughts about you so stop bothering yourself that's all" he said that and cut the call.
Yes It's what you all think, it has been a year but I was wanted to know how that guy is doing. *its the last time and I am not going to think about it anymore* said to myself. I called Pravi "can we meet up tomorrow?"
"what is it about?" he asked and I was in some mood swing and said "cant you understand why I am asking, just come tomorrow and pick me up thats it dont ask me anything"
"Ok ok cool now, I will come tomorrow" he said and I hang up the call.
The next day he came to my house and pick me up in his car and we went to a park to talk in person. He turn off the car engine and we are ready to get out but I told him "the park seems to be people all around, now I need some privacy to talk with you about something"
"ok lets be in car for a while and after finish talking we can go out for a walk in the park" he said. I was ok with is and gave a smile. He turned on the car again and switch on the A/C. "No I don't want A/C, its raining outside and its already cold", he then turned it off and only air from the fan was coming around.
"So now what is it about?" he asked, "nothing its..its about him, my ex-bf I asked my friend about him. I was curious."
